The majority of students stay at New York City’s Central Park West YMCA, located at 63rd street and Central Park West. Each room has two beds and a window. Though the rooms tend to be on the smaller side, they are cozy, bright and clean. There are plenty of single-sex bathrooms on each floor. Downstairs there is a state-of-the-art workout center for students to use whenever they want. Central Park West has easy access to the subway, bus and taxis. It is also a very safe area of the city. Each student will get a metro card which will enable him or her to unlimited access to all pubic transportation.
Within a block there are plenty of coffee shops, bookstores, great shopping, restaurants and museums. Historically students from all four colleges love to get together to explore the many different NYC possibilities.
